>Ladybird to adopt rust: https://ladybird.org/posts/adopting-rust/ Am I the only one losing faith in ladybird? I think at this point servo might actually be the new browser that replaces Firefox. I don't think this wishy washy attitude really shows that kling is confident in his vision for the browser. Servo was written in rust and continues to be written in rust and seems confident in that choice where ladybird seems like it was written in C++ and now is trying to jump to another language for no reason beside Klings inability to commit to something.

An Open Letter Opposing Android Developer Verification: https://f-droid.org/en/2026/02/24/open-letter-opposing-developer-verification.html >As we wrote about back in September in F-Droid and Google’s Developer Registration Decree, Google plans to enforce mandatory developer registration as a requirement for building and distributing Android applications worldwide. Android, currently an open platform where anyone can develop and distribute applications freely, is to become a locked-down platform, requiring that developers everywhere register centrally with Google in order to be able to distribute their software. This applies regardless of whether your software is distributed commercially on a competitive app store like the Samsung Galaxy Store, or through a non-commercial community app repository like F-Droid, or even by offering your app as a direct download from a web page. In all these cases, installing or launching any application on an Android Certified device (which constitutes over 95% of all Android-compatible devices outside of China) will phone home to Google to verify that the developer and the application has been approved. >After an initial public outcry, Google rushed to assure developers that “sideloading is not going away”. This, as we pointed out in What We Talk About When We Talk About Sideloading, is simply untrue. Sideloading, their pejorative term for the direct and unintermediated installation of software of your choosing on the device that you own, is indeed going away if they follow through on their threat. Furthermore, future app store competitors, be they commercial or non-profit, will forever be disadvantaged by their developers being required to sign up with Google, bound to their (voluminous, non-negotiable, and ever-changing) terms and conditions, pay a fee, upload government-issued identification, and register each and every one of their applications with Google.

If you want to update your track, make a new post. Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album. You must include a screenshot of your DAW - this is to verify the track is not stolen or AI-generated. Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may also add a pseudonym to be included in the track metadata, but it must not be one you already use on music platforms. Songs that violate YouTube's policies won't be uploaded there, but they will still be added to the album. By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your song. Light-touch mastering is sometimes applied to improve the consistency between tracks. Use of AI is banned - This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is prohibited.

Are any people left online?: I know this is a topic that has been talked about a good bit, but everyday it gets more and more relevant. Like the MSM is literally discussing how companies are planning to use AI to LARP as dead or inactive users. I would not be surprised if it has been going on for years at this point. Like it seems most of the users I come across are bots, actual demons, and maybe a few glowsters. I keep seeing more demonic stuff in their usernames and profile pictures and they seem to keep bringing up stuff I only thought about or am interested in. It is very unnerving. This tread will serve as a space to talk about how many real users are left online, what to do about it, the Dead Internet Theory and Infernal Internet Theory on general, as well as any experience with users suspected of being bots, demons, or glows, especially recent encounters. This is an ontopic and resonable quality thread, please do not report. I mean this does relate to the internet, so.......

A lab in the Netherlands performed tests on numerous headphones and found them to possess endocrine-disrupting chemicals, which mimic hormones, that can cause neurodevelopmental problems and the feminization of males. Leading products from Bose, Panasonic, Samsung and some Sennheiser headphones and other companies are now being pulled off the shelves. Notable on the list of headphones possessing dangerous levels of these chemicals are gaming headphones from Razer. “Daily use – especially during exercise when heat and sweat are present – accelerates this migration directly to the skin.” From the study: Bisfenol A (BPA). Easy to enter your body through your skin when you wear the headphones for long or when you sweat while having them on. Even small quantities can weaken your immune system, cause fertility issues and allergic rashes.

1080p on native 4K continued: I'm the "1080p on native 4K" anon OP from the old >>108146238 thread. Just wanted to update and say that I finally took one of my 1080p laptops to my parents house and tested it on their midrange native 4K tv set. Unfortunately my concerns have been confirmed. 1080p source in a midrange native 4k screen looks like shit for desktop use and web browsing. Text looks blurry as hell with the screen's 1080p -> 4K upscaling, using shitty interpolation rather than integer nearest neighbor scaling. I'm not a complete idiot and I'm used to these things. I made sure the TV was in PC mode + Just Scan mode, and tried both my high end HDMI 2.1 compliant cable, and my parents shitty Walmart/Amazon-tier no-name HDMI cable they use for their satellite receiver. Also tried different ports on the tv and made sure I tried the recommended port for PC use. It made no difference. Also messed with the TV advanced picture settings, sharpness, clarity, etc. Now, with all that said, I have to say 1080p on native 4K really looks significantly better than a 720p or 768p source on a native 1080p screen. And I guess it's perfectly fine for video games and movies. But for desktop use and web browsing it remains vastly inferior to a native 1080p screen, and this anon >108148750 was full of shit (I've seen similar takes on the internet). The problem is that the vast majority of 4K TVs and monitors still won't do integer scaling from 1080p, not even as an option in advanced settings, and will use shitty interpolated upscaling by default instead that adds lots of blur. Only a few high-end 4K TVs and monitors will use integer scaling. Doing interpolation in 1080p -> 4K scaling as standard might make sense in very large screens like 50-inch and larger because of PPI issues, but in 43-inch screens and smaller it's retarded. Now I'm considering my options but I'm leaning towards getting a native 1080p screen, even with the risk of getting a shit panel. Thanks to anons that tried to help.
